SURVIVOR® OTR Concrete Deck Truck Scale

Durable Concrete Deck Truck Scale

The SURVIVOR OTR concrete deck truck scale provides reliable traction in wet or icy weather conditions, and resists corrosion. A concrete deck improves load distribution to withstand forceful movements caused by heavy trucks entering and exiting the weighbridge. Maintenance is also simplified with boltless, top access to load cells and junction box. The rodent-proof conduit-enclosed cables eliminate pest damage.

Reliable Concrete Deck Design

The design of the SURVIVOR concrete deck ensures safety and accuracy with improved load cell distribution. Six inches of concrete above the weighbridge’s neutral axis is supported by the six-inch steel deck substructure. The substructure is composed of galvanized steel sheets and I-beams to increase strength throughout each module.

Competitor Designs

Many competitive weighbridges try to compensate for lighter steel or a lack of steel components by pouring a 9-, 10- or 12-inch concrete deck, often extending below the neutral axis. This can result in dangerous concrete bending, which can cause surface cracks after just a short period of use.
